________________ Soul CS Jains believe in the existence of the eternal and divine Soul – in each and every living being Reincarnation of the Soul is one of the fundamentals of the Jain philosophy and Karma theory The concept of Reincarnation not only guides one's deeds in this life but also affects them in subsequent lives Every religious philosophy acknowledges the existence of some form of Heaven and Hell & therefore believes that some part of a Human goes to Heaven or Hell after death Jainism believes it is the Soul that goes to be reborn in the four realms of existence: Heaven, Hell, Human or Animal life based on one's thoughts, words and deeds during their life time. This cycle perpetuates until one attains liberation
